Geodetic

GEODETIC


Geodetic is a standalone applicartion which will allow the user to carry out a series of geodetic calculations using either predefined parameters or user input data. The software was first developed in 1984 to run on a PC running under DOS and has been constantly been redeveloped in line with PC development. 
The current version runs under Windows 7 and 10
